Chapter 35 No one knows how to dodge bullets better than me
Master Liansheng, a great monk?
A flash of confusion and surprise passed through Pinggong Qianye's eyes, and then he looked at his nose and his heart, remaining silent.
Akechi Mitsuhide, who was sitting next to him, was stunned for a moment, and his eyes involuntarily looked at Pinggong Chiye. Seeing that he didn't say anything, he just smiled and said nothing.
"Master Liansheng, this Dharma name sounds so familiar."
"I remember that in the forum on the Pudu APP, there was a Master Liansheng who was very good at telling stories. His stories always made people unable to stop reading."
As the discussion started, Akechi Mitsuhide also came over and asked with a rather strange look on his face, "Is this Master Liansheng so famous?"
"Mingzhi, you rarely log into the Pudu APP, so you don't know Master Liansheng. He has a group of loyal fans in the forum."
"..."
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled even more and put his arm around his shoulder, "Come, tell me in detail about this Master Liansheng."
From the exclamations and sly laughs that Akechi Mitsuhide made from time to time, Hiramiya Chiye could be sure that Akechi Mitsuhide must have known that the Master Rensheng mentioned by Takeda Saburo was himself.
Weilian Ancient Temple, headed by Liansheng.
Akechi Mitsuhide already knew this identity when he first met him.
"By the way, you haven't asked your Buddhist friend for his Dharma name yet?"
Seeing that they were talking happily, Takeda Saburo looked at Hiramiya Chiye.
Pinggong Qianye just asked: "What is the mystery of the great monster Qingxuandeng's resurrection, and how is it related to Master Liansheng?"
"The great monster Aoandon died in the Heian period, and now he has been resurrected, which naturally makes people think a lot."
Takeda Saburo's thoughts were quickly pulled back. "It is said that the great monster Qingxuandeng is the guardian of the underworld. Its resurrection must be related to the underworld. Resurrection from the dead is a great secret that attracts countless practitioners."
"Oh, coming back from the dead, that's amazing."
Pinggong Qianye simply responded, leaning quietly on the sofa and drinking a sip of ice cola.
He didn't know that the great monster Aoandon had ever died, but what he met last time was definitely the great monster Aoandon.
There is absolutely no mistake about this.
"I've only heard about it from others. At present, the only person who truly knows these secrets is Master Rensheng." Takeda Saburo sighed.
I didn't, I don't know, don't talk nonsense.
Pinggong Qianye quickly denied it in his heart.
"My friend has not found any results in his investigation so far and is actively looking for Master Liansheng. I heard that Master Liansheng is in Tokyo. If you know where he is, you can tell me."
"..."
Pinggong Chiye chose to remain silent.
Someone found me through the Internet!
As expected, one needs to be extra careful when posting stories on the forum. Even if one blocks a lot of key information, they can still find out that one lives in Tokyo.
He was not worried that the other party would come looking for him, but he had no idea where the great monster Qingxuande was at the moment, which would cause a lot of trouble again.
Moreover, when one’s virtual identity on the Internet is exposed, one always feels socially shamed.
It was almost 11 o'clock, and Kimura and Shida, who were dancing on the dance floor below, came up covered in sweat and smelling of perfume.
"How does it feel to shake your head?"
Mitsuhide Akechi handed each of them a bottle of cold beer.
"Cool!"
"Shaking your head is also a form of practice. It can also help you dodge bullets at critical moments."
"In the past, I would have thought this was nonsense. Now, I just think that my previous thinking was too conservative."
"Heh, no one knows how to dodge bullets better than me."
When Akechi Mitsuhide said this, he deliberately made gestures and shook his head.
Such words caused everyone present to burst into laughter.
There are always some international "big stars" in this world whose every word and action attracts great attention.
……
As it approached 12 o'clock, Mitsuhide Akechi and his friends prepared to go to the late night show.
Pinggong Chiye has never been very interested in this kind of invitation.
He left the bar alone and walked to the street, looking at the city scene that was still brightly lit, but he was not very interested. The pedestrians who were still wandering in the middle of the night were walking in a hurry, with no place to rely on, no place to come from, and no place to return.
Pinggong Chiye sighed, he was also unable to change this social phenomenon.
Furthermore, this is true in every era.
Desires are rampant and the sea of suffering is difficult to cross. How many people in ancient and modern times can reach the other side?
There are always only a few people who truly understand why they live their lives. Most people are swept forward by the social trends and cannot break free.
Even if you can go against the crowd and stay awake and think, it will also bring other pain.
A pig that learns to think is undoubtedly painful.
That’s why there is the famous saying that life is a place where you can be confused.
It sounds like words of advice, but in fact it is helpless self-consolation.
After walking for a while, Pinggong Qianye chose to walk to the edge of the area, preparing to run home tonight.
The chat with Saburo Takeda tonight made him feel passionate for the first time in a long time, and he had the urge to release the results of his current practice.
He has always been restrained in many aspects, because restraining one's unruly thoughts and delusions is also a kind of practice.
But he is only 16 years old this year, at the age when he can make the most of his youth.
He has not yet practiced Buddhism to the point where his basic human nature and desires are emptied out.
Sometimes people still want to let off some steam.
Pinggong Qianye walked to the dark area of the river where few people went.
At 12 o'clock in the night, there were not many lights around and no one was around.
I looked at the map on my phone and found that it was about 25 kilometers from this place to my home, which would normally take a few hours to walk.
If you run, you can go much faster.
After looking through the map, Pinggong Qianye finally chose an abandoned road. The place was quite remote, and it would only take an additional 10 kilometers.
Put your phone in your pocket and zip it up to prevent it from falling out while running.
This is the latest model of mobile phone, worth more than 100,000 yen.
After making sure that his cell phone and keys would not be lost, Pinggong Qianye took a deep breath and began to jog slowly along the river.
The night breeze carried the water vapor from the river and was particularly cool.
Pinggong Qianye began to speed up along the river. After entering the abandoned road in the uninhabited area, he no longer suppressed his physical strength and stepped forward heavily with the front of his right foot.
A deep crack appeared on the abandoned cement road, leaving a very obvious forefoot print at the original location.
The whole person felt like a gust of wind blowing through him fiercely.
Speed up, speed up!
Faster, faster!
As the speed continued to soar, the wind and waves that were pushed away by my ears whistled and made a buzzing sound, followed by a crisp sound like an explosion.
What I saw before my eyes gradually became illusory, and finally, along with the road, only a curved line remained.
Everything around me began to turn into abstract paintings.
Pinggong Qianye threw himself into the run, releasing the powerful strength contained in his body.
It’s not fast enough, it can be faster!
The body's power has not been fully released yet, it can go even faster!
The adrenaline rush brought by the extremely rapid speed gives people sensory stimulation that is no less than the great terror faced between life and death.
Suddenly, Pinggong Qianye felt as if his body was stuck in some kind of quagmire, and the heavy pressure from the surrounding area was pressing in like a tidal wave, trying to crush him completely.
Phew, it can be faster!
Pinggong Qianye once again stimulated the strength of his body and released it without reservation.
As the body passed through the mud, both the body and mind felt relaxed and comfortable in an instant, as if arriving at a new place, a new world.
A high mountain near the main stream of the Arakawa River, with vermilion torii gates stretching from the foot of the mountain to the top, where a shrine stands.
Under the cold bright moon, above the tall building of the shrine's main hall, a graceful figure in a Chihaya costume floated.
She wore a golden crown, an elegant golden hairpin, and red-buttoned straw sandals that were just barely visible from under her red skirt. In her left and right hands she held a golden fan and a Kagura bell respectively.
At this moment, she lost her usual noble and cold demeanor. Her bright eyes widened slightly, her scarlet lips slightly parted, and she stared at the black shadow that suddenly flashed by on the abandoned road at the foot of the mountain without blinking.
After the black shadow left, a series of crackling sounds like firecrackers exploding were heard.
